Ed1 ED2 any undiscovered eds and peeps, we've heard talk of world class players, and ED2 has quite rightly stated if there was a one team of the best players would they get in? So I'm saying there's an Alien invasion and akin to space jam, there's a clause that let's us play a game of football to save our universe. And by some lucky chance your/ my ugly mug is manager. Who's playin? For me it's Michael Jordan, Bugs Bunny wait wha it's not basketball?

If we play Ozil, Ribery, Pepe and Tevez then the aliens might think they are on their own planet and leave us alone?

I don't think "world class" can mean the twenty best players in the world. That is the cream of the cream or the elite. There are more than twenty world class players in the premiership let alone the world.

I think it should be defined as the best players in the best leagues. If coutinio is world class then so is mane. Wc could be defined as the top level of international football imo.

Mane needs to work on he's decisions and understanding of the game if he is to be labeled World class imho. Great player though with extreme qualities, not ment to be negative towards Mane in any way just my thoughts.

Superred,

If hendo and Lallana are world class as you say, then 50% of the premier league players are.

World class is a subjective term, used to describe a completely subjective judgement.

And you all sit their and mock each other regarding who is and isn't? It's childish.

In my opinion, world class means in the top 10 players in the world for your position. Showered may define it as anybody in the top 100. He may have entirely different criteria. He may define it as anybody good enough to win titles. Who knows! What i do know is you can't tell each other as facts who is and isn't world class. I've grown to dislike the term because people who view it differently, rather than ask you to explain your logic, just mock you for thinking differently to them.

Henderson in my opinion is not world class. Nor is Lallana. Nor is Firmino. In fact Mane is pretty touch and go. I can completely accept that people disagree though. It's an opinion.

In my opinion, bench pressing 100kg is difficult! In Ed001's opinion, bench pressing 100kg is easy because if he can carry the weight of this site around his neck all day, 100kg is bugger all! Stop tearing into each other over the definition of a cliché phrase used to quantify a bloody opinion, for god's sake.

I said they were close to world class stand. You are slagging them because you are utd.

You talk about Hendo as if he is an average premiership midfielder but he is in fact the England captain. If you think lallana is average then I can only imagine you are a cricket man rather than football. I would take ads over any attacking mid at utd. I really like Juan mata but I think AL is better.

Did you see him play last season before Xmas? He was immense. He was also probably England's best player in the euros. Not saying much admittedly. I think if both Hendo and lallana could add finishing to their game they would be truly world class. That's my opinion. I do seem to have a different definition of world class to most on here and maybe I'm wrong.

Ed1? ED2? Ed25? Any takers?

{Ed025's Note - i would have stretch armstrong in goal, the beatles as my back 4, curly larry and mo in a 3 man midfield, and a forward line of batman and superman playing either side of arnold schwarzenegger..

Super, I'm not a bias poster. Search my history of post and you'll see I'm very fair all round. Im not blinkered by my own team, and happily admit players from other teams are good. My interpretation of a world class player is probably the top 5 players in each position. A player who all top clubs, like Madrid and Barca, would happily have in their squads. I think Mane is close to that level, I think coutinho is close too, just think he is slightly inconsistent from time to time. From us De Gea is the obvious one, best in the world. Pogba can become world class. That's probably it from our side. But you can't tell me Henderson and Lallana are even close to that level. Sorry but no chance. I also would have Mikhitarian over Lallana all day, who needs 5 touches each time he collects the ball. I can genuinly say I wouldn't take either in or squad. Mane and coutinho of course.
